217.240 Recovery by applicant: Subrogation; duty of notice and payment. An applicant who accepts an award does so
under the following conditions:
1. The State of Nevada is immediately
subrogated in the amount of the award to any right of action or recovery the
applicant may have against any party, and that right of subrogation may be
diminished for attorney’s fees and other costs of litigation in obtaining a
recovery from another source; and
2. If recovery from any source is obtained
for damages caused by the crime, the applicant shall promptly notify the
Director of the source and amount of that recovery, and shall promptly pay to
the Department the lesser of the amount of the award made pursuant to this chapter
or the amount recovered less attorney’s fees and costs. The duty of notice and
payment pursuant to this subsection continues until the amount of the award has
been repaid to the State of Nevada.
